How do we keep creativity with the the new Common Core?
After a year of working to implement the new Common Core Learning Targets in middle school, many teachers have struggled to find ways to incorporate the fun in learning. With many heavily text based targets and more content than the old Illinois State Standards, how do we bring these targets to life for our students?
The idea of making learning fun and engaging is nothing new. The bigger question becomes how to bring those hands-on, interactive, multimedia projects and learning experiences into the new curriculum.
Here are some excellent resources for integrating creative, engaging, and meaningful teaching into the Common Core...
The P21 Common Core Toolkit - Great for integrating 21st century skills in the Common Core targets.
Creativity in the Common Core - I love Pintrest, and this is a great PinBoard of educational ideas.
